Despite my love of the good stuff, I have always kept a pack of grocery store brand bags on hand for the sun tea jar — days like today, COLD trumps flavor. Tagless variety also makes for a good sunburn or eye compress. Headed to the farm to power wash muddy household goods, so this may come in handy for both purposes.

You inspired me! I just threw some old Luzianne bags in a glass pitcher to cold brew. Don’t know if it will work as a cold brew, but we will know by this evening! My mother-in-law’s dentist gives you a teabag when he pulls a tooth. He says to dampen it and then bite on it to stop the bleeding and help the clot form. Tea!

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
